Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of agricultural machinery technology, specifically relating to a bud thinning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Bud thinning is a technique that adjusts the number of flowers and fruits on fruit trees, thereby optimizing fruit quality and yield. By reducing the number of fruits, the tree's nutrient consumption is reduced, allowing the tree's nutrients to be concentrated on a smaller number of fruits, thus improving fruit quality and promoting high-quality and high-yield fruit production.

[0003] Chinese patent CN222193215U discloses a grape thinning device, comprising the following structure: a shearing shaft with two shear blades fixed in the middle and a shear handle fixed at the bottom of each blade; a guide frame with a sliding seat slidably connected in the middle, and connecting rods movably connected to both sides of the sliding seat. The worker grips the shear handle, which, in conjunction with the connecting seat, changes the position of the sliding seat in the middle of the guide frame. The top of the guide frame is movably assembled with the shearing shaft, ensuring that when a flashlight is installed on the guide frame and fixed frame, the flashlight's beam direction is forward along the guide frame and shearing shaft, i.e., the flashlight can be refracted in the middle of the two shear blades. This ensures that the user can clearly observe the cutting position of the shear blades on the excess grape stems, solving the technical problem of insufficient external lighting affecting the thinning operation when using existing shears.

[0004] During the application process, the applicant discovered that the above-mentioned application has defects in use. The fruit thinning device disclosed in the application achieves bud thinning by cutting off the fruit branches, which will damage the integrity of the grape bunch branches. Moreover, during operation, the user needs to control the cutting angle of the shear blade. When dealing with some dense fruit bunches, the user needs to adjust the cutting angle of the shear blade multiple times, which is quite troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0028] Example:

[0029] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, a bud thinning machine includes:

[0030] There are two handles 1, which are hinged to each other and connected by a spring 18. The spring 18 is used to push the handles 1 outward so that the handles 1 remain open.

[0031] The clamp 2 is hinged to the handle 1 via the hinge shaft 3;

[0032] The first adjusting screw 4 is threadedly connected to the handle 1 and located on one side of the hinge shaft 3. The end of the first adjusting screw 4 abuts against the side wall of the clamping plate 2.

[0033] The second adjusting screw 5 is threaded onto the handle 1 and located on the other side of the hinge shaft 3. The end of the second adjusting screw 5 abuts against the side wall of the clamping plate 2.

[0034] The bud-sparse component is rotatably connected to the clamping plate 2;

[0035] A drive assembly, connected to the clamp 2, is used to drive the bud-splitting assembly.

[0036] As can be seen from the above, by setting a clamping plate 2, a first adjusting screw 4, and a second adjusting screw 5 on the handle 1, and setting a thinning component and a drive component on the clamping plate 2, when the user needs to perform thinning operations, the thinning component is activated by the drive component, and then the clamping plate 2 is attached to the grape bunch. The thinning component will remove some grapes from the bunch, reducing the density of the grapes on the bunch. Moreover, the user can adjust the working angle of the clamping plate 2 by the first adjusting screw 4 and the second adjusting screw 5, making it convenient for the user to clamp grape bunches of different sizes for thinning operations. The user only needs to clamp the bunch to achieve thinning, without any other extra operations, resulting in high thinning efficiency and good effect.

[0037] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the bud thinning component includes a plurality of first bud thinning rods 6 rotatably connected to the clamp plate 2. The first bud thinning rod 6 is composed of a first mounting rod 61 and a plurality of arc-shaped plates 62. The plurality of arc-shaped plates 62 are connected in a circumferential array on the first mounting rod 61. The driving component can drive the first bud thinning rod 6 to rotate, and the first mounting rod 61 drives the arc-shaped plates 62 to rotate. By rotating the arc-shaped plates 62, part of the fruit on the fruit bunch is removed, thereby achieving the bud thinning effect.

[0038] Please see Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the bud thinning assembly includes a plurality of second bud thinning rods 14 rotatably connected to the clamp plate 2. The second bud thinning rod 14 is composed of a second mounting rod 141 and a plurality of arc-shaped toothed plates 142. The plurality of arc-shaped toothed plates 142 are arranged in a circumferential array connected to the second mounting rod 141. The driving assembly drives the second bud thinning rods 14 to rotate, and the second mounting rod 14 drives the arc-shaped toothed plates 142 to rotate. The arc-shaped toothed plates 142 remove part of the fruit on the fruit bunch, thereby achieving the purpose of bud thinning.

[0039] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the drive assembly includes a motor 7 connected to the clamping plate 2, a first pulley 8 connected to the first mounting rod 61, and a first belt 9 movably connected to the first pulley 8. A drive wheel is connected to the output shaft of the motor 7, and the first belt 9 is movably connected to the drive wheel. A second pulley 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the first mounting rod 61, and a second belt 11 is movably connected to the second pulley 10.

[0040] As can be seen from the above, the motor 7 will drive the first belt 9 to rotate through the drive wheel, the first belt 9 will drive the first pulley 8 to rotate, the first pulley 8 will drive a part of the first mounting rod 61 to rotate, and the first mounting rod 61 will drive the arc plate 62 to rotate to achieve bud thinning.

The worm gear 15 and the worm 16 mesh with each other, and the ends of the motor 7 and the worm 16 are each connected to a meshing transmission gear 17.

[0042] As can be seen from the above, the motor 7 drives the worm 16 to rotate through the transmission gear 17, and the rotating worm 16 drives the worm wheel 15 to rotate. The rotating worm wheel 15 will drive the second mounting rod 141 to rotate, and the second mounting rod 141 will drive the arc-shaped toothed plate 142 to rotate to achieve bud thinning.

[0043] The two driving components and the bud-sparse component mentioned above can be used in any combination.

[0044] A positioning rod 12 is connected to the clamping plate 2, and a protective shell 13 is connected through the positioning rod 12. The protective shell 13 is fastened to the outside of the drive assembly to prevent the drive assembly from contacting the fruit bunch and causing a jamming failure.
